"Build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn." "I never learned how to tune a harp, or play upon a lute; but I know how to raise a small and obscure city to glory and greatness; whereto all kindreds of the earth will pilgrim." "The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood." "I have witnessed the tremendous energy of the masses. On this foundation it is possible to accomplish any task whatsoever." "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." |
